    Strengths:    Works very good. It has good strength(they are seriously bend my chainstay), and modulation. Chiper than XT twice, a little bit weaker.

    Weaknesses:    ANY!!!!!!!!

    Bottom Line:   
    The best V brakes without parell push. I use LX canti brake levers, and Sram 9.0, and I'm alive :))) Better than LX!!! I give 4 chillis becouse of XT :)))))) They are only comparable with XT, i have never ridden top Avid brakes, so I can not compare with it. The Best relation price to value on market!!!!!!!!!

    Strengths:    simple, light, strong braking, cheap

    Weaknesses:    the "shark fin" doesn't really aid unhooking the brake.n Adjustments take forever...

    Bottom Line:   
    Good Stuff, this is my first pair of linear brakes. Adjustments are nerveracking, maybe that's the same for all v-type brakes. Less parts than than the parallel push design, and it looks pretty slick.

    Strengths:    Works very good. The deore xt is just a bit better but it costs twice as much so its not worth it.(here in hungary)

    Weaknesses:    Haven't whitnessed any.

    Bottom Line:   
    I didnt expect it to be so good and it's very cheap. I thought of buying a deore xt but its twice as much and after trying it, it wasnt worth it. But ill probably buy disc brakes next year.
